How crazy would it be to install 4.30's with a poweradder and a 28" tall tire?

Seems alot of people n/a like the 4.10's or 4.30's and alot of people supercharged like the 3.55's or 3.73's (i'm guessing this is because it helps with traction and less spin, right?) so how crazy would it be to move to a 28" over a 26" with a power adder and 4.10's or 4.30's....

What about hitting 4th before the quarter mile, that'll happen with the steeper gears right? Good, bad, or indifferent?

With 4.30s, you can get up to 112 mph or higher in the traps.

You can use 28" tires but likely only with nitrous would it be helpful.

Gears with a supercharger depend whether it is a positive displacement or centrifugal supercharger. You likely want no more than 3.73s with a PD blower and you would still need 4.10s for most centrifugals. Even with 28" tires.
